Dear Sir: Pardon, I pray, for my too long neglect of your letter of April 11 last. I think the axle of time must have been liberally lubricated, to have polled around so rapidly.
A Ivan Stewart, my father-in-law, of Utica, was one of the towering champions of Abolitionism. A man of peculiar genius, grand eloquence, resistless humor, and pertinacious persistence.
One of the points of his attack, one of the places in the wall which was built, aroundSlavery, to which he directed his catapults, was the Act of 1793, by which, he said, every inch of the free thirteen States was re¬ duced to the nearest debasement." He was ever ready^to r defend the escaping bondman, in his flight towards the North Star; both out of Court by his means, and in Court by" his Counsel and advocacy.
That his stately mansion was often the resort, for a night, and until the next underground rail-road should start, Is undoubtedly time. The subterranian
Railway/had-ja...j3.ta_t.ipn at. his house, where the passenger
stopped for rest, refreshment, and to take courage for the next train.
